But I feel the very passive pass pro we ran has it's part in it as well. Every time a D-lineman leaves his feet knock him on his ass and they'll be a lot less likely to jump after that.

Yes, we've had conversations on the board about this.  While it's true that the OL doesn't know when the pass will happen, and thus has no idea if, or when the DL will jump, if you know him on his tail a time or two, he'll be reluctant to repeat the action.  

If you think about it, the DL is completely vulnerable, at that moment.  A shot to the solar plexus might send him to the sideline for a play or two..
